Broken e-brake
So, I get to work tonight, I pull my brake up and "pop" I thought I was going to rip the handle out of the console. I have a 6spd so I kind of need it though it isn't necessary. I was curious if this has happened to anyone and if there will be any added stress on my gears when i park? I live on a hill so it's necessary. Though I always use brake and gear when i'm parked regardless. It just doesn't end with this jeep... I'm afraid to do any mod at all

Others have had the same thing.
You broke a cable, or the clutch arm in the handle.
Either way, you need a new lever assembly; about $50 from the dealer, (unless you still have the warranty).
Go here to see how it works, and what usually breaks:
